Standard is where most first cruises start, and there is nothing second-rate about it. These are licensed, well-run ships following exactly the same route as every other boat on the river: the same temples, the same moorings, and the same Egyptologist with you if you travel with us.
Cabins are comfortable rather than large, with a window that opens and a shower bathroom, and there is a sun deck and a pool. Prices here start from about $569 per person for two sharing. If your budget is better spent on a longer trip or on Abu Simbel, this is the sensible place to save it.
